Houl, we know you have no argument when you descend into direct personal abuse.

any comments on Bernard Finnegan, South Australian Labour MP and child-porn enthusiast?

DiamondPete,

Please highlight the alleged direct personal abuse.

Austin Powerless,

He did something against the law.

I would agree with the law if he paid for the images, or if he took them.

I am in favor of laws against sexual assault and abuse of children, or the financial support of such activities.

I am not in favor of laws against pedophilia per se; ie I am generally not in favor of thought crimes.

Houel, you choose to not admit to your personal abuse. So be it.

Also, regarding Houel's last post. According to him "thought" crimes should be legal. Therefore, according to him, planning a murder or robbery or child rape etc etc etc, as long as it's not written down, should be a perfectly ok and legal activity.

Pete, you choose not to attempt to quote my so called 'personal abuse', because it doesn't exist. So be it.

'planning a murder or robbery or child rape etc etc etc, as long as it's not written down, should be a perfectly ok and legal activity.'

Definitely.

It can be written down too though.

Do you seriously think that anyone who has ever entertained the idea of a crime but has not actually gone through with it should be arrested?
